The White House,
Washington, November 16, 2018.
Hon. Paul D. Ryan,
Speaker of the House of Representatives,
Washington, DC.
Dear Mr. Speaker: Section 202(d) of the National
Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)) provides for the automatic
termination of a national emergency unless, within 90 days
before the anniversary date of its declaration, the President
publishes in the Federal Register and transmits to the Congress
a notice stating that the emergency is to continue in effect
beyond the anniversary date. In accordance with this provision,
I have sent to the Federal Register for publication the
enclosed notice stating that the national emergency with
respect to the situation in Burundi that was declared in
Executive Order 13712 of November 22, 2015, is to continue in
effect beyond November 22, 2018.
The situation in Burundi, which has been marked by killing
and other violence against civilians, unrest, the incitement of
violence, and significant political repression, and which
threatens the peace, security, and stability of Burundi and the
region, continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat
to the national security and foreign policy of the United
States. For this reason, I have determined that it is necessary
to continue the national emergency declared in Executive Order
13712 with respect to the situation in Burundi.
Sincerely,
Donald J. Trump.

----------
Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to Burundi
On November 22, 2015, by Executive Order 13712, the
President declared a national emergency to deal with the
unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and
foreign policy of the United States constituted by the
situation in Burundi, which has been marked by the killing of
and violence against civilians, unrest, the incitement of
imminent violence, and significant political repression, and
which threatens the peace, security, and stability of Burundi
and the region.
The situation in Burundi continues to pose an unusual and
extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign
policy of the United States. For this reason, the national
emergency declared on November 22, 2015, to deal with that
threat must continue in effect beyond November 22, 2018.
Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National
Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year
the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13712.
This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and
transmitted to the Congress.
Donald J. Trump.
The White House, November 16, 2018.
